extremely good "search engines" or interactive versions of "stack overflow"

Which is such a decent use of them! I've used it on my own hardware a few times just to say "Hey give me a comparison of these things", or "How would I write a function that does this?" Or "Please explain this more simply...more simply....more simply..."

I see it as a search engine that connects nodes of concepts together, basically.

And it's great for that. And it's impressive!

But all the hype monkeys out there are trying to pedestal it like some kind of techno-super-intelligence, completely ignoring what it is good for in favor of "It'll replace all human coders" fever dreams.
